In this gripping child-in-danger story, Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers and her partner, Inspector Thomas Lynley, investigate the kidnapping of a friend's little girl from an Italian marketplace. With both her job and the life of a little girl on the line, Barbara must decide what matters most, and how far she's willing to go to protect it.

Overlong and Poorly Edited submitted by sdunav on June 16, 2014, 8:36pm This is the 18th Lynley/Havers mystery - and unfortunately, the books are not as good as they used to be. The characters are still fascinating, but this mystery is downright bloated (over 700 pages - heavy to carry while traveling, but I had a hc from the library, not an e-book ). And though the setting in Lucca, Italy, is interesting - both in terms of police procedure and scenery - the constant and unnecessary use of Italian phrases was annoying.

Still, I liked the ending, some of the plot twists, and I still want to know how Lynley and Havers get on, so I'll hope the next book is a bit tighter and better edited.
